Lemon Crinkle Cookies




■1 (super moist) lemon cake mix
■2 eggs
■1/3 cup vegetable oil
■2 tbsp lemon zest
■2 tbsp lemon juice
■1 tsp lemon extract
■white sugar for coating
■confectioners’ sugar for coating

1.Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

2.Pour cake mix into a large bowl. Stir in eggs, oil, lemon zest, lemon juice and lemon extract until well blended. Drop cookie scoops of dough into a bowl of regular ‘ol white sugar (this will help the confectioners sugar stick). Toss the sugar over the ball of dough until coated. Move the ball into the bowl of confectioners sugar, toss ‘em around more. Once sugared, put them on an non-stick (or lined with parchment) cookie sheet.

3.Bake for 6 to 9 minutes in the preheated oven or until the edges are lightly browned.

I had to keep mine in for 10 minutes. I guess the timing depends on your oven.

They were so good that I am making them again for company on Easter Sunday. :)

Enjoy!

Craftiness & a Holiday Headstart

Image
These are on their way to some friends for whom I am very grateful to have in my life. :) I got this as a gift from Sweet Mellie who was my Secret Santa last year but didn't have enough time to make it so I made it today. Isn't it CUTE!? I plan on filling the draws with little treats for the kiddos to enjoy each day leading up to and including Christmas Day. Should be FUN. I noticed that I put holly berries in the middle of my flowers instead of regular old brads but it's too late now. Them suckers are glue dotted on. :O I think I got my Christmas card photo!!!!!! What do you think?

Well, folks, the new year is almost here and it's resolution time. I've got quite a few and I plan on sticking to 'em.

Make more time for scrapbooking! 5. Meet with the girls more often! 6. Finish my knitting projects! 7. Complete my 9 on 9 album! 8. Think more positively! I think that's enough for this year. And to start off the new year right here are 2 new layouts using mostly American Crafts product. :) TFL!
